I would try an induction before jumping to a c-section when possible. Vaginal deliveries tend to be easier on the body (not easy but better than major surgery where they are cutting several layers of skin, fat, and organs)...
I switched to an induction after my due date!
I would 100% avoid a C section unless medically necessary. It’s completely your choice but like Tiffany says it’s a major surgery and the recovery is harder/longer for a lot of women.
